MOT is just a visual inspection so if done right its a no brainer. Van's however carry a 2500 fine so might be cheaper to replace the dpf Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't get it twisted lads I'm all for it I know lads who have been plagued with dpf issues and cost them a small fortune all eventually went the dpf delete route ...1800 people have been done since 2014 according to this article but this was upto 2017 so you can add a few more to that total so in the big picture I'd say it's a low risk activity. https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/car-news/consumer-news/95410/thousands-of-uk-motorists-removing-diesel-particulate-filters 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They'll think of something to convince us all electric cars are bad for the environment when they realise they are losing out on hundreds of millions of pounds of car tax.
